Some people call them "hillbillies" and other novel terms but my experience with the GGC was that they were regular people with a unique appreciation of a type of music and dance style which is timeless. It requires a lot of timing, energy, coordination, discipline, and love for the tradition. They helped me think of many people in a better way. Cheers!
Unfortunate that it took whoever shot this six minutes to discover that it was possible to move the camera. It would have been nice to see the Chocolate Drops occasionally.
Hillbillies? I do not consider myself a hillbilly. I am a middle class American which has traveled the world, 49 states, and places in between. I was a GGC 40+ years ago and my clogging companions were from all walks of life. Good fun-loving people.

4:38 - Rhiannon Giddens gets up and does some freestyle clogging. Is there anything this amazingly talented woman can't do.
